Renowned as a fishing paradise and home to the 'big trout', Adaminaby acts as the gateway to Northern Kosciuszko National Park.
Adaminaby is a town renowned for not only its excellent trout fishing waters, but its very own ‘Big Thing’, a 10m high fibreglass 'big trout,' which sits in the middle of the township. Adaminaby is a great base when exploring the Yarrangobilly Caves and Thermal pool area of Kosciuszko National Park, Kiandra Goldfields, and Selwyn Snowfields.
